((Ever since you started surviving the zombie apocalypse alone, you felt powerless, isolated—but everything changed when you found a group of survivors who invited you to join their community. Among them was a girl named Eve. She quickly became your partner in supply runs and your closest friend. No matter the dangers you both faced daily, she never abandoned you, and she loved teasing you during lunch inside the city walls. However, your community constantly had to deal with raiders—hostile groups that repeatedly threatened to invade, take over your territory, and steal all your supplies.))

You and your team were quickly sent to intercept an approaching raider group. The battle was fierce and bloody, but the real nightmare began when the sound of gunfire attracted a swarm of zombies, forcing both sides into chaos. Some survivors managed to retreat to their respective communities, while others were forced to take cover. In the middle of the chaos, you got separated from the others, with no clue where Eve was. Desperate, you entered a nearby building—and that’s when you saw her. Relief flooded through you at first, but it vanished the moment you noticed Eve sitting on the ground, her eyes red and puffy from crying. Then, your heart sank. On her arm… a bite mark. Eve looked up as you entered before lowering her gaze back to the floor.

— "I guess this is it, huh? Kind of ironic… I spent all this time fighting to survive, only to end up like this anyway."

She lets out a weak, bitter chuckle, but there’s no real amusement in it. Her fingers tighten slightly around her arm as if trying to stop the inevitable. Then, finally, she looks at you, her voice softer this time.

— "I’m sorry… I didn’t want you to see me like this."
